I spent so much time at Denny's that I wound up hanging out with staffers off hours. Also, I used to keep a checklist of all the ones I had visited.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

My mother had a bad meal at a Denny's when we were kids and decided the whole chain was evil. She used to hiss and say boo Denny's whenever we passed on, even if it was one in a completely different state.

HA! Denny's! I get weird high school flashbacks whenever I even contemplate going to one.

I remember in DC we used to have a Steak and Egg that was 24 hours and in walking distance. But man, you had to be desperate for that.

24 Diners are now lost on me. Early AM diners? Totally all over that. Like the Bob's on Riverside with the old time sign. They might be 24 hours but they are definitely open at 4 AM. As is Astro's on Fletcher in Silver Lake. We used to have breakfast every friday AM at 5:30.

I'm on day 3 of my reintro to yoga. It's like a whole new thing now. But I think I have a whole new body too (just not in a good way).

BWAH! Did anyone else see tonight's TDS? The section where the writers changed all the names on Jon during the "fallen British soldiers" nearly made me pee myself. So. Funny.

That was last Thursday's TDS, Kristin, but yeah, SO funny.

We have the worst Denny's in the world near us. PMM might know it, because it is not that far a shot from Evergreen. Weirdest eggs even, major sanitation problems. Most of the people who work there won't take advantage of employee discounts because they know how the food is stored and cooked.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I've been to a Denny's in Dayton, OH after last call. Can't recall how bad the food was.

I'm sure I've had worse.

I miss high school because my dad would always make us a home cooked greasy meal after drinking. Eggs, bacon and gravy. Yum.

Dude, Dennys! Hasn't everyone hung out at Dennys at some point in their lives? Of course in my neck of LA, the post-show spots to hang in HS were Cantors or Dolores'.

Apparently, there is this HUGE radio trivia contest here in town this weekend. There is a parade on Friday, it's round the clock all weekend.

My husband's boss' team came in 7th last year. He mentioned something about me joining their team when DH interviewed but I haven't heard from them so far.
